Stockings of Old

A Baltimore girl wears her boyfriend's photograph on her stockings. As hemlines rose, attention was focused on stockings and shoe fashions.

So I think I'm going to start selling some of the clothing and accessories of mine that have been sitting in the back of my closet for a while.

So some time in the near future, expect some posts with photos and (cheap) prices!
